Operative words
"It's become obvious to us that moving forward with SuperZoo 2020 in a format that abides by health and safety regulations will compromise too many components for us to deliver the experience -- personal and professional -- that makes this show the biggest and the best. Therefore, we have made the decision to postpone SuperZoo 2020" (Vic Mason, Interim President, WPA)
